Team is in the sig. I think I have a good mix of veterans and youth, defense and offense, as well as position flexibility which allows me to throw out a lot of different type of line ups.
I think once we can grab a playoff spot and then with Rose and Shumpert ready to go by the playoffs I think we can make some noise.
Evantime, i'm real concerned about the chemistry issues early on for this team and if it will have any lingering effects in the long run.
With Rose and Shumpert out for long streches, I feel like there's going to be a lot of Hero Ball being played between Lilliard/Young/George/and Cousins.
Also who gets phased out to a degree when your 2 starters return? lilliard, George, Shumpert, and Young all need minutes to develope.
On the not-negative side, i love the spacing between Cousins and Anderson. That will be a deadly combination right there.
TP for the response. I don't see George as a hero ball type guy, I see him as a guy who will play great defense, run the floor and spot up when others drive.
Those wings won't have the opportunity to play hero ball. The ball will go through DeMarcus Cousins in the post more often than not. If they double Cousins, George, Young, Lillard, Anderson, and Williams can all space the floor or drive inside.
When we aren't getting the ball deep inside to Cousins we are going to run pick and rolls with three point starters spacing the floor if the defenders try to help.
When Rose and Shumpert come back they will start at the 1 and 2. George will move to the 3. This will give me 3 very athletic plus defenders. At times I will bring in Okafor with this lineup to stifle people defensively. Young will be a microwave scorer off the bench. A lineup of Rose, Shumpert, George, Cousins and Okafor can be elite defensively.
So our offense is going to be pick and rolls and post touches for Cousins. While everyone else spreads the floor. Without Rose we are going to have more post touches, with Rose we are going to have more pick and rolls, either way we're running the same stuff all season (this will build continuity).
I don't have any concerns about chemistry issues, with veterans like Okafor, and Jeffries as well as a clear offense from the start I don't see anything bad happening.
